I. 10:17am Meeting called to order
II. Meeting and Strategic Plan Overview
· This strategic plan is different because a lot has been changing with TBA and the world, so this has been a very comprehensive project. TBA is looking to get a lot clearer about where we are and how we can serve the whole community.
· This strategic plan includes the audience as part of the theatre community.
· The format of the written plan is supposed to be less boring. It’s like a "play", with Acts, Cast of Characters, etc.
